Full Smile Makeover

Our patient was tired of patch work dentistry. He needed new crowns in proper position, length and symmetry. We replaced each tooth to provide a beautiful and custom smile!

Sometimes a patient comes in with teeth that are just not fixable without a major financial burden. Dentures can be the right solution, especially if planned in stages with a minimum amount of implants. These teeth were removed and replaced with a denture on the same day.

After braces, our patient still needed two teeth to finish her smile transformation. She decided not to complete implant crowns, so we conservatively placed two crowns retained off the backs of the canine "eye" teeth. This procedure is known as single wing Maryland bridge.

Over time, due to grinding and acid reflux, our patient had very weak lower front teeth. They were replaced with a fixed lower bridge to provide comfort and esthetics back to his smile. The lower teeth are often seen the most while we talk to each other. Just look next time at your evening news anchor and notice how much the lower teeth show in conversation.

Our patient was tired of her short teeth next to her front teeth. We very simply removed excess gums from those teeth to create a natural length and symmetry in her smile. The procedure does not create much discomfort and healing time is short.

Patieht had multiple bondings completed to try and repair her front teeth. She decided to have these two crowns completed in one day with the CEREC technology. These teeth will not fracture nearly as easy as large bonding and create a uniform appearance with the porcelain work.

Teeth can have genetic or developmental changes that alter the enamel or dentin and therefore the appearance. Here, a conservative approach was taken to apply a uniform color simply through re-calcification with MI paste treatments and selective polishing in the office.
